speaker questions, will it even solve the problem?

I have two rokus in two houses. I want to take a separate speaker or soundbar from one to the other as I travel. Is this possible with a wireless speaker? Can I get a bluetooth speaker and pair it? The sound is so difficult we have to turn it up so loud, I want to have a speaker if it means I don't have to turn it up so loud.

Re: speaker questions, will it even solve the problem?

You didnt mention whether you have Roku TVs or Roku players.

You can connect Roku wireless speakers to a Roku TV, but not to Roku players.

You cannot pair Bluetooth speakers to Roku TVs/players.

You can alway connect a soundbar with ARC/Optical to the TVs themselves.

You also have the option of using the Roku Remote app on a phone/tablet (or an Enhanced Voice Remote) with headphones connected or paired to it.

Thank you, I have tv's.

I do listen thru my iphone, but that only works if I am alone.  So, my understanding is that any soundbar will work using the arc hdmi plug, but no small bluetooth speakers will work, and only the bigger roku wireless will work?

 

Thank you so much.

As long as you iPhone supports connecting a bluetooth speaker, you should be able to use a the Roku app on your phone and connect the bluetooth speaker that way.
